When news came that Diplo and Switch - two globetrotting beat-makers/cultural aggregators best known for their work with M.I.A. - were teaming for an album, expectations were high for hipster dance Valhalla.

And last year's "Guns Don't Kill People ... Lazers Do" fit the bill.

Now Major Lazer is bringing its geo-curious dancehall bash to BoMA. Mad Decent's rising dubstep baron Rusko will bring the bangers too, as will Sleigh Bells, a guy-gal duo with a minimal setup and maximum volume. Their ace 2009 single "Crown on the Ground" took noise-pop to violent new heights.
